Are there other new rules?

I believe there are no other new rules apart from;

Buy low sell high.

If there is another rule, it is "Invest what you can afford to lose"

If you buy low and it is going lower, don't panic, relax and it will revert.
But if you buy high and it is going lower low, please panic.
1902  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where Bitcoin has been googled the most? on: May 05, 2022, 12:53:05 PM
I am interested in number 1 and number 2 in the list.

Number one - El Salvador
This people has adopted bitcoin already and they are searching the Google to ensure they learn how to use what they have adopted. So, what they are probably searching is how to use bitcoin for payment etc.

Number two - Nigeria.
Nigeria government has not adopted bitcoin, infact they have placed a ban on it and ask banks to block individuals local bank account who joins bitcoin.
Upon the law, the intimidation by the law enforcement agents by extorting individuals into crypto, yet more Nigerians are still eager to understand what bitcoin is all about

Crypto go kill naira the more if adopted officially. Check majority of us wey sabi crypto no get fiat again. Only when we want buy something, we go convert coin to fiat and buy. This means that if crypto is officially adopted, naira utility will reduce drastically and will make the value of naira to further crash.

No be so e go be if we understand crypto very well as against fiat. Nigeria case no follow for comparison because no be crypto deh crash naira. Na over dependence on importation deh weaken our naira. We always buy dollar or other foreign currencies to bring in goods here. Na the main thing weh deh cause our money to deh worthless. If government like make them completely kill bitcoin for Nigeria, the naira go continue to deh crash until importation is fixed. Na so them accuse Aboki FX say na them make dollar deh rise and closed their site. That was when dollar dey exchange around 450/$ self. Today we know how much exchange rate deh. This government no serious at all.
If you read wetin I write carefully, you go understand say, I no talk say na crypto dey make Naira crash. Me I know why naira dey crash and your importation claim na one of them. But wetin I dey let you understand be sey, the naira as e day now is too weak and fragile. Wetin dey give am small backup e dey use dey survive na base on say na our legal tender. No matter how e crash reach, we go deh use am because na our own. But for this naira condition now, if you legalise another means to do international trade without using the said naira, forget am, naira go cast. Na my point be that.
1904  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reducing Bitcoin Transactions in El Salvador on: May 05, 2022, 11:59:14 AM
Let's say 100% installed chivo and got $30BTC.
Then 20% of the people who installed Chivo continued to use it after receiving the $30.

My question:
1. Is there a data that shows how many percentage stored using chivo app because it is difficult for them to use. Maybe at first they gave it to someone to help them claim the $30, after getting the welcome bonus they could not continue the journey which seem complicated to them.
If we can get the number of citizens who wish to use but don't know how to use, you will understand the true nature of things in El Salvador.
2. Are there not people who uses bitcoin in El Salvador but are not interested in the chivo app. Where is there own percentage?

1907  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if the fees aren't enough? on: May 04, 2022, 02:41:55 PM
What if transaction fees aren't enough to incentivize the miners to secure the bitcoin network? I think this is a potential problem we may see in the next few decades as the halving continues on.
When btc mining started, you know how huge btc miners that solve the block will go home with?
The journey continued and the amount keeps reducing and till today.
How many pools do you think solves the block.
How many solo miners can solve a block?
Yet, miners are not reducing and transaction fees are not on the roof.
So, it can be said that miners are already living on transaction fees and bitcoin is still here.
1908  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My Bitcoin teaching approach on: May 04, 2022, 02:05:09 PM
. A better idea would be for you to be invited to speak to the class.
This will be a better idea. Doing it as an extra curriculum activity.
When I was in high school, there's a day set aside as a social activity day, usually Fridays. This day, the students come up with different activities as debates, dramas, poems presentation, paper presentations. If such a day exists in your school, it will be a nice opportunity to lecture the students about bitcoin. This time it will not be only your class but the whole students and also your fellow teachers who are interested, that will benefit from it.
1909  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria (Naija) on: May 04, 2022, 11:22:03 AM

Now back on the topic, the problem is not peculiar to just Nigeria, as of today there are only about 2 countries that have made Bitcoin a Legal tender, the thing is that most governments would not adopt a decentralized currency, for obvious reasons of course. Having said that, with the effects of the covid-19 pandemic still biting hard, causing a high level of inflation and devaluation of national currencies, making Bitcoin a Legal tender is the last thing most countries would be thinking of at this very time, because it does not help their cause to bring about a stable general economy/currency.
Coyster dey reason with me from the same angle. One day I begin ask myself why government dey fear Bitcoin and crypto to adopt them. I understand say, as individual those people fit like crypto, but as a government, e go hard for them to adopt the bitcoin.
Crypto get plenty advantages but yet disadvantages dey too.
Even if I become president of Nigeria today, the best I will do is to remove the ban on banks and stop all harassment because of crypto. But I go do wider consultation before I go officially adopt bitcoin as a legal tender if actually I will.

Crypto go kill naira the more if adopted officially. Check majority of us wey sabi crypto no get fiat again. Only when we want buy something, we go convert coin to fiat and buy. This means that if crypto is officially adopted, naira utility will reduce drastically and will make the value of naira to further crash.

Make we pray for the right decisions because NGN is wash already, any further deflection on it will throw it into oblivion.

Manchester United have reportedly made a bid of £67million for Benfica star Darwin Nunez. The Red Devils will need a new centre-forward this summer amid uncertainty over the futures of Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood, Edinson Cavani and Anthony Martial. But whether they’re successful in landing one of Europe’s hottest prospects remains to be seen.

https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1603566/Manchester-United-transfer-news-Darwin-Nunez-Benfica

Looking at how big the Manchester squad is, spells out huge wage bill which hasn't yielded good results! It's time Utd offloaded the extra players to give room for new replacements.

i just can't understand, cristiano ronaldo is not young anymore and as i remember he went to manchester united because he wants to be his last club to retire, he already knew manchester united is a bad team, he could have gone elsewhere better clubs so i don't understand why he would want to leave manchester united now? it doesn't make sense to me. cristiano ronaldo hja won everything any player wants, he doesn't need trophies anymore, he needs to play to have fun and contribute to the team. I share that he leaves Manchester United. but there are players in manchester united who are leaving because they are not bringing results that benefit the club
I so much agree with your view. C.Ronaldo has won everything a player need to win and age is no longer his friend. I don't think he needs to leave the club again. What he needs do is to stay and build the club together. He is a great player and a motivator, he should stay and make the sacrifices for his club.
Even if it means that he should take a pay cut to accommodate more people, he should do so and the club and the fans will be very happy with him. He honestly doesn't need to eave Manchester United at this time.
1911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: May 01, 2022, 08:41:41 PM
I can't shake the feeling that Manchester City will make a mistake in the remaining games and lose points. I'm currently waiting for this result, because then hopefully Liverpool won't miss this opportunity and win the title again. I would have expected the mistake even yesterday. In any case, the PL is still very exciting. Grin
I am waiting more than you Grin
I am having the serious feelings that Manchester city will make a mistake and Liverpool will take the day. I pray let's not wait in vain because Guardiola and his men are not smiling, they want to win both Epl and CL if possible. But I trust Jurgen Klopp, if he misses Epl, he cannot miss CL.
These two clubs should reach a consus if possible  Grin.
Let Liverpool win the Epl and Manchester City go for the Cl.
1912  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is your bitcoin hero (excluding Satoshi)? on: May 01, 2022, 10:40:13 AM
I believe you do not mean bitcoin hero in this forum, because I saw that award during the last voting of the community award organised by Icopress. If you are talking about bitcoin generally, there are alot of heroes which Satoshi is the number one. According to your question, apart from Satoshi I have another person who is my hero, I don't know his name but I know his story.
That developer that Satoshi was communicating with via email during the creation of bitcoin. What is his name please?
1913  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria (Naija) on: May 01, 2022, 10:12:27 AM
Brainboss, tankiu for relating this CAR bitcoin adoption news to our ogbonge Naija.
And Wiwo, you don try as you to talk on the matter and state what you understood. You talk say u decide not to dey chuck mouth for Naija political matter because people no dey believe you and because of sentiments. Baba, you no dey correct here, you no go fit separate sentiments and politics or because we no believe you then you no go dey update us again.

But for this crypto adoption mata, make una no vex for me if I talk my mind, me I be realist and I dey talk something as I perceive it.
See upon say crypto no legalise for Naija, but the level wey G-guys and government join dey use crypto, dey alarming and damaging.
If you mistakenly legalise crypto, Nigerian will be number one crime centre of the whole world. Infact the country fit no dey governable again.
So, as no body legalise it, boys still no get restriction to use it.
So, wetin I dey clamour for na, make law enforcement people no dey intimate and extort people wey dey use crypto. Make dem allow anybody wey sabi way to follow. But for now make dem avoid  to make public announcement for crypto adoption, make we see whether the country go normalise small after 2023 before dem go announcement the informate.

A great day for Liverpool and Manchester City it was. They both showed very good level of performances and won their games. Manchester City still keep their lead in the league table but they are feeling the pressure over themselves surely. Liverpool take the lead temporarily when they play first. And they aim to increase that pressure over Manchester City to push them to make mistakes. But things are still going the same for now.
Manchester City and Liverpool are keeping England very warm and entertaining even till now and it is good for the league. Today Liverpool nearly made a mistake against Newcastle, I expect Manchester City to make such a mistake and draw but Liverpool wanted to make the mistake. I believe the competition will be very strong even till the last match.
I don't really want Manchester City to lift the Epl again this year, let I be for Liverpool so that England will not be like other leagues like Bundesliga and ligue-1.
1915  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't ever quit your job to trade crypto. on: April 30, 2022, 11:40:11 PM
Crypto is the biggest risk I've taken so far that did pay me well for all the time wasted, I think the risk is worth it unless your job payout is way better, where I'm from the dollar is a lifesaver honestly so even if my earning per day is 10$ its already a big earn in my country currency.
yeah right. if the salary from daily work exceeds the income from crypto then don't leave the job. but if the work done gives a low salary. there is nothing wrong with choosing to jump into crypto as long as we really understand and master the crypto trade itself. because if you don't know or master krypto itself, it's better to keep your job even though the salary is small.

same as in my country. $10 dollars per day is enough to meet daily needs.
Crypto is risk taking investment and every investment is a risk. It is not good to quit your job for not only crypto but for every job. It is better to get job addition than to leave one job for a other one.
Crypto is a passive income which can give you time to do other jobs, so keep both jobs.
$10 can make small difference in my country but not for someone that has family and relatives that he carter for.
1916  Economy / Economics / Re: One nation one currency... on: April 29, 2022, 08:32:28 PM
I hope there is 1 or 2 global currencies so that it can be a global price standard, and in my opinion crypto is a better thing than fiat so it is worthy of being a global currency that is recognized by the state, and I hope the state can accept crypto because of more benefits, whereas if if if Only depending on single currency certainly makes the economy vulnerable from problems such as inflation.

We can actually consider USD as global currency since as we see this one used by many country especially when they are dealing some product overseas or even online. Also bitcoin can be consider as that also but unfortunately majority of the country is not supporting it and most of them prefer fiat over digital currency this is why it will take time before bitcoin will be recognize as a global currency.
USD is very popular and one of the strongest currencies in the world. Even if it can be said that USD is one of the global currencies, it cannot be the only currency of the world. The power of one currency is determined by the weakness of another currency. So, there can't be one global currency.
If there is one global currency and inflation hits the currency, the whole world will suffer.
If bitcoin becomes the only world currency and during crash the world will bleed also.

1918  Other / Meta / Re: Creting a second account after ban without being caught. on: April 28, 2022, 08:51:57 PM

What happens is that it would cost you more work, if for example you have a Facebook account with a certain number of friends that serves you for the bounties, then you would have to start from 0 and create another new account and get friends.
From your own perspective, your are correct. But from the perspective of the ban evaders, your logic is not wiser than theirs.
See their logic.
You get banned, instead of creating another account like facebook and begin scouting for friends, that will actually waste alot of time. They instead, have to re-use their social media accounts and create a fresh account here and will receive payment pending when they will be caught. And if they are banned again, they come with another account and it continues. That is why when you go to the bounties, you normally see newbie accounts more.

My tip for today West Ham 1:2 Frankfurt. The game is on a good level, and i believe in the power of Frankfurt. But there is still something more missing, like in Barcelona. After the 1:1, not much happened in the first 45 minutes. That will change a little bit. And I believe in a German final this year.
Your tip has played out, but it came early which means there will be more goals in the match. I am not able to view the match because I am viewing Manchester United vs Chelsea at the same time.
I really belive in Westham to get worse a draw tonight.
1920  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: April 28, 2022, 07:48:30 PM
In this match between Manchester United and Chelsea. De Gea is doing his best to ensure that Manchester United does not go home with zero point. He has saved so much goes than expected. Even Ronaldo wants to be in Champions league, he is seen several times joining defence to .are sure there is no goal. Matic is doing well in the mid field. Apart from these three men, others are playing rubbish in the pitch. Rashford is very lazy and tired and he is no longer fit to be in Manchester United squad. Honestly Manchester United need to start afresh.
